Luke 21:1-8

1 He looked up and saw rich people putting their gifts into the treasury;

2 he also saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins.

3 He said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them;

4 for all of them have contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on."

5 When some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, he said,

6 "As for these things that you see, the days will come when not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down."

7 They asked him, "Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign that this is about to take place?"

8 And he said, "Beware that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, "I am he!' and, "The time is near!' Do not go after them.
